I Became a Renowned Family’s Sword Prodigy

Episode 49 Hunting the Hunter (2)

[An unexpected quest has arrived.]

Try to perfectly achieve the goal you set for yourself.

Condition: Eliminate Giant Mantis After revealing Choi Jae-young’s identity, he is eliminated.

Compensation: 700 point unexpected reward.

-Isn’t this your original goal?

‘I have to catch the boss, get the elixir, and kill Jaeyoung Choi. ‘That’s my goal.’

-Then this is just free.

‘yes.’

Baek Woo-jin nodded calmly

-Did you make a contract with Lady Luck without my knowledge? Be honest.

‘Think whatever you want.’

-Who on earth is looking after you? What kind of evil!

‘Ugh…’

Baek Woo-jin muttered, ‘Here we go again.’ and entered the dungeon.

“We’ve already left.”

I spent some time watching the quest, but there was no one left at the entrance.

– Baek Woo-jin. Don’t answer, just listen. There is something floating in the upper left.

‘also.’

Baek Woo-jin nodded as if he knew.

-Did you know?

‘That’s ‘Searching Eye’ given by Choi Jae-young.’

Searching Eye is an observation-type magic that has the ability to share the field of view by attaching it to enemies or allies.

Although it is a level 6 magic, Jaeyoung Choi was able to use Searching Eye using an item.

-It was him, after all.

‘He must have used that magic while thinking about how to kill me.’

Choi Jae-young has killed people in two ways.

The first method was to attack those with hunting abilities, and the second method was to kill the boss and finally kill those who were trying to leave the dungeon with traps.

‘I don’t want Choi Jae-young to ambush me.’

If you kill Choi Jae-young, who is ambushing you, you won’t be able to reveal that he is a human hunter.

You have to fall into Choi Jae-young’s trap along with other talented people to reveal his true identity.

‘Then…’

Baek Woo-jin expressed his excitement as he looked at the forest surrounded by bushes.

With his senses stretching out like a net, the locations of the capables and mentis began to be identified.

‘I need to show him how to catch the boss.’

**

Kyaaaang!

Swordsmen Kim Jeon-hu and Son Jin-han of the Ilseonhyang guild swung their swords at Mentis, who was twice as tall as them.

A clear aura flowed from their swords, but it could not pierce Mentis’ hook-like forelimbs.

“Those reflexes are really….”

Kim Jeon-hu bit his lip. Mentis’ reaction speed and durability were so excellent that the attack could not be successful.

“After the war, it’s dark!”

At the sound of a guild member’s voice coming from behind, Kim Jeon-hu and Son Jin-han turned to Mentis’ side.

“Burn flare!”

“Explosion Ball!”

As soon as Kim Jeon-hu left, a straight line of flame and a huge fireball attacked Mentis.

Kwaaaaang!

An explosion ball exploded over the stem of the burn flare, creating a firestorm.

“Kyaaaaak!”

When Mentis, with half of his body melted, tried to fly away, Jinhan Son cut open Mentis’ stomach and Jeonhu Kim cut off his head.

“Kkii…”

Mentis, whose head fell off, struggled and lost his breath.

“Whoa….”

“Good job.”

Wizard Kim Jin-ah came up next to Kim Jeon-hu, who was sighing.

“As expected, magic is the answer for Mentis.”

“Because you guys are holding on from the front. “We can use magic.”

The standard for Mentis hunting is for the swordsman to draw attention from the front and the fire mage to attack from behind.

“Now that we’ve taken a breather, let’s start again.”

Jeon and Hu Kim took the lead in looking for the next Mentis. When I crossed the bushes and reached the next forest, I saw a familiar face.

“That person…”

“Huh? “Isn’t that Baek Woo-jin?”

The person they found was Baek Woo-jin, who was running towards two Mentis.

“There are two marines, so shouldn’t we help them?”

“I don’t know if I ask for it or if it’s dangerous. “If you help me now, all I can hear is still sounds.”

“Well, let’s go nearby and wait.”

The Ilsimhyang guild members watched Baek Woo-jin in an attitude that he could jump out at any time.

But something completely different from their common sense happened.

Quang!

Baek Woo-jin’s kick caused Mentis’ front leg to lose its track and fly off.

He didn’t miss the opportunity and cut Mentis’ body in half with a vertical slash.

It was a sight I couldn’t believe.

“Can I do that? crazy!”

“You’re using a kick technique to pop off Mentis’ front legs? “Was that possible?”

“The sword is loaded with so many auras that Mentis’ body is cut off with one sword!”

Ilsimhyang guild members were distraught after witnessing a scene completely different from what they expected.

It made no sense to catch Mentis with two swings.

Whoa!

Baek Woo-jin casually slashed the front leg of the second Mentis with a horizontal slash and cut off Mentis’ head.

It was a force that could only be described as overwhelming.

“Huh….”

“Wow….”

The only sounds that came out of the mouths of the Ilshimhyang guild members were exclamations.

“Is that really a level 4 swordsman? “Even if I can’t do it, isn’t it level 5 or level 6?”

“They said they weren’t worried about the four major guilds, but I never thought it would be that bad…” Even

thinking about it again, the destructive power Baek Woo-jin showed was shocking.

Baek Woo-jin hunting alone was much faster than hunting with five guild members.

“Hmm….”

Baek Woo-jin, who shocked the entire Ilsimhyang guild, looked at his sword and looked disappointed.

‘Because the sword is so good, it went faster than I expected. The trajectory is a little off.’

-It’s not important because it can be fixed quickly. What’s really important is that your sword is a sword.

‘that’s right. ‘It’s beyond your imagination.’

Baek Woo-jin also stuck out his tongue at Armingeom’s abilities.

The increase in auror damage attached to the Dark Sword and the increase in swordsmanship ability brought about a jaw-dropping difference even to one’s own imagination.

It had a destructive power that was completely different from previous sword techniques.

‘I’ll be able to catch the boss in no time.’

**

“Kiaaaaa!”

Baek Woo-jin was the first to arrive at the end of the dungeon and was able to meet Giant Mantis, which was twice as big as Mantis.

‘It’s so big.’

-It’s not just the size. It has fast attack power and attack speed, and also spits out acidic liquid from its mouth.

‘I know.’

Unlike Mantis, which only uses short-range attacks, Giant Mantis is a versatile monster that can even use long-distance attacks, including spewing acid.

‘Before I catch Giant Mantis…’

Baek Woo-jin swung his sword at super speed and eliminated Seoching Eye before he could react.

-Are you finally getting rid of it?

‘There’s no need to show me any more. Jaeyoung Choi must have known that I have the skills to catch Giant Mantis, so he will lay a trap at the exit of the dungeon and wait for me.’

-That guy believed in the trap he had set, and then fell into your trap.

‘That’s what I’m aiming for.’

Baek Woo-jin released his hands and rushed towards Giant Mantis.

Chuaaaaaa!

Green liquid came out of Mentis’ mouth. It is an acidic liquid that can even dissolve stones.

As if Baek Woo-jin had expected it, he stepped on the anonymous step and avoided the acid.

Squeaky!

When Baek Woo-jin got close to Giant Mantis, Mantis’ front legs popped out with the sound of the air being torn apart.

Quaaaang!

Baek Woo-jin used the sword technique to block Giant Mantis’ attack.

The clash between Giant Mantis and Baek Woo-jin was a close match.

“Kiaaa!”

Anger filled Giant Mantis’ eyes. His pride was hurt that a small being blocked his attack.

Shuaaang!

Giant Mantis swung both front legs in an x shape. It was a terrifying attack that tried to tear Baek Woo-jin’s limbs apart.

Quaaaaa!

Baek Woo-jin did not avoid Mentis’ attack and took a sword fighting stance.

A black flash exploded from his sword. It was the activation of a further strengthened black king bullet.

Quaaaang!

The enormous aura contained in the Black King Bullet simultaneously destroyed both front legs of Giant Mantis.

Mentis’ steel legs were broken like a piece of corn.

“Kiaaaaaaa!”

Giant Mantis stepped back like crazy. Mentis’ eyes were filled with fear and extreme pain at an incomprehensible situation.

Paaang!

A frightened Giant Mantis spread his wings and tried to fly into the sky, but Baek Woo-jin did not let him go.

Absolutely!

From Baek Woo-jin’s sword, sword blades loaded with brain energy flew out in succession and tore off both wings of Giant Mantis.

Coo coo coo coo.

Baek Woo-jin used the Muryeong Clash against Giant Mantis, who fell miserably.

Due to the heavy pressure flowing from Muryeongcham, Giant Mantis was unable to scream even once and was crushed and exploded.

Kwaaaaang!

Muryeongcham exploded not only Giant Mantis but also the earth beneath it.

“Whoa….”

– That’s really crazy. The difference is greater because sword fighting is used rather than basic sword fighting. That sword is for the boss.

“okay. “I didn’t know there would be such a difference.”

I thought I would have to fight for a long time, but I had no idea that I would be able to defeat Giant Mantis in just 3 hits with my sword.

This was thanks to the increase in damage and activation speed of the sword possessed by Amingeom.

I think it was really good not to show this scene to Choi Jae-young.

-Why are you so dazed? Take some elixir.

“That’s right.”

Baek Woo-jin lifted something that looked like red spinach next to the corpse of Giant Mantis.

-Huh, the elixir you mentioned was Ilwoncho?

“As expected, I know.”

This red elixir is named Ilwoncho.

Not only does it possess a lot of mana, but it also has a special effect of increasing physical abilities by expelling waste products accumulated in the body.

It was an elixir that anyone could aim for because it had the effect of taking two elixirs.

-You eat all the really good things.

“You have to take everything you can.”

Baek Woo-jin chuckled and placed the Ilwoncho into the inventory of darkness.

“Then it’s time to wait.”

Baek Woo-jin collapsed on the spot after taking Mentis’ magic stone. Waiting for other talented people.

Jerk.

About an hour later, I heard quiet footsteps approaching.

“uh?”

“Huh!”

The people who showed up were the talented people from the Socheong guild who had spoken at the entrance.

They were mesmerized when they saw the crushed corpse of Giant Mantis.

“Are you sure you caught Giant Mantis?”

“Boss by yourself? “And a level 4 swordsman?”

The talented people could not close their mouths at the scene that shattered their common sense.

“I caught it a little while ago.”

“Did you really catch me by yourself?”

“I came alone, so I caught it alone.”

“crazy! No, I didn’t say it to the prosecutor. No, that’s right. “I don’t mean it in a bad way.”

The wizard waved his wand and shook his head.

“I know.”

Baek Woo-jin laughed lightly. As I was talking with the Socheong guild, another neutral guild also appeared.

They also showed the same reaction as the Socheong guild.

Coo coo coo coo.

While I was having a brief conversation with the talented people, the dungeon shook. This means that all monsters inside the dungeon have been captured.

“The dungeon has been conquered. “Please go back now.”

“Oh yes….”

“Hey Woojin. Can you explain how you caught Giant Mantis? “I want to learn because it’s the same prosecutor.”

“Me too!”

“I’ll tell you as we go.”

Baek Woo-jin led the people toward the exit of the dungeon.

‘From now on, it’s real hunting.’

**

Jaeyoung Choi was sitting on a tree near the exit of the dungeon.

He had even used Hide Mana and Silence Invisibility to suppress his presence and sound.

‘You’re finally here.’

Choi Jae-young smiled coldly when he saw Baek Woo-jin approaching the exit.

After the Searching Eye exploded, it was confirmed that Baek Woo-jin had caught the Giant Mantis thanks to summoning and sending another Searching Eye.

Although I was surprised by the guy’s power, the thought of killing such a genius made me even more excited.

‘As expected, other guys were there too.’

Because I calculated the number of talented people, I knew that there were 10 other talented people next to Baek Woo-jin.

A magic trap with the highest firepower was set up with the intention of annihilating not only Baek Woo-jin but also other talented people.

The installed trap has a level of heat that even a level 6 swordsman or wizard cannot withstand.

‘now!’

Choi Jae-young snapped his fingers as talented people who knew nothing passed in front of him.

Grumble!

Bright red flames exploded from the floor and trapped Baek Woo-jin and the talented people.

It is the Flame Keeper, a level 5 magic trap that surrounds all directions with flame.

Because the firepower was maximized with items and magical power, it had the same heat as a level 6 magic, and because it was circular, it could not escape anywhere.

“Hahaha!”

Choi Jae-young burst into laughter and laid a fire field on the floor surrounded by Flame Keepers.

The worst trap that calls itself Inferno has been completed.

Chaaaang!

To protect himself, Jaeyoung Choi activated Frozen Shield and Ice Spear and approached the trap.

Chiiing!

Jaeyoung Choi made one wall of flame transparent and looked inside.

“Huh!”

“Off….”

“I can’t stand it!”

The 11 talented people, including Baek Woo-jin, were unable to even raise their heads due to the heat of the flames and were sitting down gasping for breath.

“Choi Choi Jaeyoung? “What on earth is this?”

Baek Woo-jin, who barely raised his head to see Choi Jae-young’s face, screamed.

“Hehehe!”

Choi Jae-young’s smile deepened when he saw that.

Watching the direct descendants of the Shingeombaek family, who were called geniuses, writhing on the floor, brought me greater joy than ever before.

“Ugh, why are you doing this….”

“Because it’s fun.”

“What what?”

“Hunting humans is much more fun than killing dumb monsters. “The screams and painful expressions that humans make when they die give me more pleasure than any other form of entertainment.”

Choi Jae-young’s mouth was torn like a ghost. It was a smile that gave you fear just by looking at it.

“Baek Woo-jin. “Still, I’m a Shingeombaekga, so I have to give it a try, right?”

Choi Jae-young stuck out his tongue as if teasing Baek Woo-jin.

If they tried to move, I planned to pour ice spears into the open gap.

“uh…?”

However, Baek Woo-jin’s face, which was full of embarrassment and pain, suddenly changed to calmness.

“Are you finished recording?”

As Baek Woo-jin looked back and spoke the words, Choi Jae-young’s eyes turned to his back for the first time.

“Re recording?”

The wizards hiding behind Baek Woo-jin were hiding small eyes in their hands.

It was a level 3 magic recording that recorded a short situation.

I thought wizards used mana to control flames, but that wasn’t the case.

The wizards were filming this situation using recording.

“Ugh, I recorded everything.”

“Then that’s it.”

“What the hell!”

Baek Woo-jin, who seemed to be barely able to hold back the heat, jumped up.

He remained unaffected by the hellish flames.

Rather, the black flame burning in his body was growing stronger.

“What are you?”

Jaeyoung Choi’s voice trembled. It didn’t make sense.

In the deathly heat where even breathing was difficult, Baek Woo-jin was moving his body as if nothing had happened.

“Lord, die! “Die!”

Jaeyoung Choi doubled the firepower of the fire field and created huge fireballs and ice lances in both hands.

As he was about to cast his spell, he noticed a black dagger he had never seen before in Baek Woo-jin’s hand.

“Ah…”

Choi Jae-young’s eyes filled with astonishment. A force so terrible and enormous that it made him shudder was flowing out of Baek Woo-jin’s dagger.

“You die.”

Along with Baek Woo-jin’s cold voice, Seomya’s claws that cut through even the darkness tore apart the inferno that Choi Jae-young had created.
